To the Editor:
In the very early morning hours of January 7 (about 12:30 am), an unidentified vehicle struck and wiped out the main transformer in the Iron Hill Farm subdivision, causing a power outage which affected some 75 homes. All of the cables had to be spliced, and new elbows had to be installed along with a new transformer. This was accomplished under adverse conditions. The crew worked throughout the night, and power was restored around 2:30 in the afternoon, roughly two hours earlier than expected.
A huge thank-you to the N-Star crew for such great work ethic. And certainly, no thanks to the so far unidentified driver who caused all of this chaos.
